Posted By: <b>Andrew</b><p>The backs of D359 Rochester Baking cards indicate the following:<br /><br />"When you have the full number [a full set] return them to our office and get a set of "Mail of all Nations Cards" or a megaphone."<br /><br />Does anyone have any information on these Mail of all Nations Cards? Or even a scan?<br /><br />Andrew<br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1171760278.JPG">

Posted By: <b>Dan Kravitz</b><p>At the time, I may have opted for the megaphone.

Posted By: <b>Scott Mosley</b><p>Hi Andrew,<br /><br />I had noticed and wondered the same thing until I won this card on eBay within the past year or so.<br /><br /><img src="http://home.comcast.net/~jillmay5/misc/Mail_Of_All_Nations.jpg">

Posted By: <b>Scott Mosley</b><p>I know Pete C. has many if not a complete set of these and I think the larger "Mail of All Nations" cards as well but I'm not sure how many of them have the Rochester Baking reverse as I think this set was issued with a couple of different backs.<br /><br />I thought it was neat to pick up an example being that it is referenced on the Baseball cards.<br /><br />I have to agree with the earlier poster, however, that I probably would have opted for the Megaphone as well <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>

Posted By: <b>Zach Rice</b><p>Here is an example of what one of the larger Mail of All Nations cards look like. I own around ten with Voskamps advertising on the backs and one with an advertisement for Batastini Bros. Bakers.<br /><br /><img src="http://i102.photobucket.com/albums/m84/mzm55cards/voskampstrade.jpg">

Posted By: <b>Andrew</b><p>Scott and Zach,<br /><br />Thanks for posting scans. Those are great cards. <br /><br />Does anyone have a guess as to how the mail of all nations cards (large and small) compare to D359 Rochesters in terms of rarity/scarcity? <br /><br />Andrew
